Give me one good reason you aren't maining Hyde in evolve

His banter is top notch
>>
Because markov's mines keep a monster off a downed friend better than a puke grenade
>>
>>344896631
>setting mines where the monster is camping
>not using blitzkov

You dummy. Set your mines up and have the other hunters bait him into them. Medics are perfect for this.

Bonus fun if you have a Sunny and she puts her shield drone in the middle of your mines.
>>
>>344896507
hyde is the best assault for sure
right behind him is torvald, so satisfying to line his shit up
>>
>>344896631
>monster is raping your shitter f2p caira while hank just watches
>you throw a mine at her
>monster finishes all over her and fucks off
>your mine finally arms once he's 200 yards away.
markov mines are only good for setting traps or just tossing 1 or two out while you wait for your lighting gun to recharge.
>>
>>344896507
because they took my fucking foliage away because faggots can't afford decent GPUs
>>
>>344896848
correct me if I'm wrong but these variation characters just look like straight upgrades to their normal counterparts
>>
>>344896507
Because Lennox is the most fun assault to play, lancing the monster and out dpsing it unless it focuses down only you. Why don't you want to play grandma ripley, anon?
>>
>>344897710
You are wrong. Waggie was good once but they nerfed her damage, Hank is better than tech hank.
>>
Cabot is best support
>>
>>344897736
She's like a fusion of ellen ripley and tony stark but lovable mr hyde 2good
>>
>>344897942
Who is the most fun medic. I've been avoiding it because if I fuck up its game over and I don't like that pressure
>>
>>344896507
because the game went f2p
>>
>>344898109
Medic is piss easy. Just make sure you walk into the barrier with as much jetpack as possible, and get ready to run. Even the most incompetent monster will endlessly rush you down, spamming abilities nonstop in a wall of death aimed right at you.

Spam jump and don't stop climbing. You hardly have to heal, because the monster generally only punches you, its perfect!
>>
>>344896507
because his flamerthrower tickles the monster
>>
>>344898361
which brings me to my next question, Goliath has some great mobility in a dome, but outside of that its rather lacking and I always have the hunters right on my tail after a dome fight, and right up my ass if they have some form of CC. Who's a more mobile Goliath?
>>
>>344896507
Because I don't play shitty games.
>>
>>344896507
When it came out I played him a lot with friends, got his elite skin pretty quick he was fun.
>>
>>344896631
Markov's mines aren't for keeping monsters off a downed teammate and neither are Hyde's grenades. You shouldn't be trying to keep him off the body at all, you should be punishing him for staying in one spot.

>>344897018
Hyde is second best assault behind the VASTLY superior Blitz Markov. Blitz Markov easily beats Hyde's damage at both close and long range and has mines that do 750(!) damage when charged up.

>>344897018
>Torvald
Torvald was the best assault right when he came out. He's since been nerfed and nerfed and nerfed again to the pitiful state he's in now. His shotgun does shit for damage, his weak points don't boost enough, and his mortars are the ungodly combination of slow inaccurate and weak (FFS Parnell's rocket launcher out-DPS' it handily and Parnell is hot garbage).

>>344897736
Lennox has zero damage at range
>>
>>344897053
just throw them down in common spots. once the dome is down. They are mines, not grenades
>>
>>344898573
Goliath is literally the most mobile monster in the game. Half of his abilities double as traversal.

Stage 1 put 2 in charge and 2 in leap smash and go straight across the map with those and traversal.

Stage 2 dump everything into rock throw.

Stage 3 doesn't fucking matter because you should've been able to kill them at stage 2.
>>
When is wraith finally getting nerfed?

Save jetpack for dodging abilities, do not use it to dodge the monster's basic attack. He does bonus damage against jetpacking hunters.

>2 charge 2 smash at rank 1
>wasting points for 2 seconds of cooldown when you could already have Rock and actually have kill potential

Be less garbage, kid.
>>
>>344899175
Not him but, it depends on how you play.
>>
>>344899175
A few things here, shitter:
-1 point in rock doesn't do enough damage to make it worth having

-2 seconds of cooldown on a pseudo-traversal makes a big fucking difference in outpacing the hunters

-If you can wipe the hunters at stage 1 with any tactic it didn't matter what you did because they were total garbage
>>
>>344899417
Upgrading charge is literally the biggest waste of evolve points. It doesn't get you anything worthwhile that you couldn't instead give to Rock for actual damage or even Flamethrower for creature killing.
>>
>>344899549
1-point rock does literally half of a hunter's health. If you don't think that's worth having, your opinion is wrong.
>>
>>344899614
You're an idiot. Upgrading charge gives it more speed and duration, it makes it more useful as TRAVERSAL because your job at stage 1 isn't to wipe the hunters it's to stage up.

Rock Throw does shit damage until you've invested 3 points into it.

You're garbage. I'm a founder.
>>
>>344899614
Charge is great cc. Down someone, then just spam charge/leap mash combo back to the body.
>>
>>344898784
>Lennox has zero damage at range
>zero
she has a mini gun

But the range of her main attack is long enough to hit monsters easily (with the help of your jet pack)
>>
>>344896507
Nigger I didn't play this shit when it cost and I won't play this shit now it's free.

That just makes you being wrong even more pathetic.
>>
>>344899756
1-point rock does 660 damage on a direct hit and ~330 on an AoE after the crumble. Hunters have 1600 health not counting shields. You're a moron.
>>
I hate how they remade the game. I wanted the shit to get slower, not faster. Now instead of a game of cat and mouse where the tables can turn at any moment from clever play on either side its an arena where the hunters always know where the monster is.
>>
>>344896507
Because I'm not playing this shit.

Says the moron who thinks your stage 1 power picks should be designed for damage, who is ALSO responding to a post advising someone who said their Goliath was having trouble outrunning hunters
>>
>>344899992
They will probably add a "stealth" mode
>>
>>344898817
that's my point, they are useless for getting a monster off a downed hunter unlike hyde's gas bombs, which do immediate and constant damage.
>>

On one hand the old sneaky hunt was fun, on the other I'm okay with the new

Wouldn't mind them increasing scan CD though
>>
>>344896507
I prefer playing medics over most of the other classes.
>tfw having max jetpack abilities
>become literally untouchable against Goliath sand Krakens
Can't do shit against gorgons and fucking wraiths though, fuck wraiths.
>>
>>344899992
because running around 90% of the time is fun. And even with the scanner sweep a good monster can use that to misguide hunters.

>>
>play Goliath
>shit all over Hunters even without Rock Throw
People underestimate Fire Breath.
>>
>>344902379
Fire breath only shines one meteor golly
>>
When does Behemoth come out? Was he already out and now they're just f2p tuning him?
>>
>>344904394
They're tuning him because he's probably the worst monster, even moreso with the new playstyle they're encouraging. He is tanky (with fucked up hitboxes negating that) but slow as shit. The new playstyle is about downing one hunter then leaving while they res him. Bob the behemoth cannot do that. He cannot escape once a trapper has him because he's all about the acceleration in ball form.
>>
>>344904394
>>344904961
Behemoth has been glitch-central since he launched way back when with T4 hunters.

He's not purchasable because of how glitchy he is. His rock wall ability in particular is essential to his playstyle but will randomly fail to work properly due to terrain.
>>
>>344902379
Fire breath isn't great on regular Goliath, but it can still be worth a point or two for killing wildlife incredibly easily and some easy damage at long range to finish people off.

On Meteor Goliath its fantastic though. Huge duration, huge range, great sustained damage that really taxes every medic but Caira and Rogue Val and is great at depleting shields with really low commitment. Viable alternative to rock throw

>>344904394
No date yet, afik.
They're reworking him because he's hit incredibly hard by the gameplay changes, and was already the weakest monster.

Behemoth

Tongue Grab ability issues related to falsely resolving hits on objects other than your target <--- Active progress
Rock Wall ability issues related to slabs fizzling when obstructed by living entities
Fissure ability issues related to the ability fizzling before it has completed it's full length
Lava ability issues related to causing double damage to hunters
Traversal issue related to errant momentum slowing on wildlife
New unannounced passive ability

how could you be so wrong?
>>
>>344905142
>>344902379
Fire breath used to be the go-to farming ability for goliath but now that farming isn't really important for getting armor it's not that great.

That said, it does have some fantastic uses if you're facing teams with a lot of place-ables. Bucket turrets, Emet heal buoys, Markov mines, Sunny's shield projector, all easily destroyed with a single fire breath so you can use your real powers focusing down hunters.
>>
>>344905523
Most fun? Probably Goliath or Gorgon.

Best? Easily Kraken. Kraken's been broken since 2.0 (over a year ago)

We have Meteor Goliath and Elder Kraken

Will we get BDSM Wraith?

either way a single player in their first game against someone that has spent upwards of 30 hours on a game is a joke. Enjoy your shit dead game I really dont give a shit
>>
>>344899819
Lol at this post

A good Goliath will have 1 point into flame at stage 1 to clear markov mines. You won't think it's worth it until you go up against a good markov and you don't have it.
I've tried all sorts of stage 1 comps, and there was a time I thought 3 leap was the best stage 1. Spread your points evenly stage 1. Do this for every monster except Behemoth (don't get rock wall stage 1, it's too unreliable)
>>
>>344909042
The fact that anyone can put up a dome isn't what would arguably make Maggie useless, it's the fact that Daisy has to compete with the Planet Tracker.
She's still useful, you will play her differently then other trappers however, because you can use daisy and save your planet scanner for right before a dome, or vice versa etc.
